A Reader in Early Franciscan Theology presents for the first time in English key passages from the Summa Halensis, one of the first major installments in the summa genre for which scholasticism became famous. This systematic work of philosophy and theology was collaboratively written mostly between 1236 and 1245 by the founding members of the Franciscan school, such as Alexander of Hales and John of La Rochelle, who worked at the recently founded University of Paris. Modern scholarship has often dismissed this early Franciscan intellectual tradition as unoriginal, merely systematizing the Augustinian tradition in light of the rediscovery of Aristotle, paving the way for truly revolutionary figures like John Duns Scotus. But as the selections in this reader show, it was this earlier generation that initiated this break with precedent. The compilers of the Summa Halensis first articulated many positions that eventually become closely associated with the Franciscan tradition on issues like the nature of God, the proof for God's existence, free will, the transcendentals, and Christology. This book is essential reading for anyone wishing to understand the ways in which medieval thinkers employed philosophical concepts in a theological context as well as the evolution of Franciscan thought and its legacy to modernity.

Quand ils parlent du catholicisme, les médias tendent à braquer leurs projecteurs vers des personnalités : le pape, bien sûr, mais aussi quelques évêques et figures emblématiques. Les institutions et les organismes restent dans l’ombre… lorsqu’ils ne sont pas désignés comme des lieux de scandales. Cela explique sans doute la relative indifférence qui a entouré en France les instances de coordination de l’épiscopat : si tel responsable a pu « prendre la lumière », si les tensions des assemblées plénières ont pu susciter l’attention de journalistes avides d’histoires de conflits, le travail collectif qui y a été effectué est resté relativement ignoré, alors que ses conséquences sur la vie du catholicisme français ont été importantes. L’ambition de cet ouvrage est précisément d’éclairer l’histoire des structures ayant permis aux évêques français de se concerter au niveau national, depuis la convocation d’une assemblée des cardinaux et archevêques de France en 1919 jusqu’aux transformations vécues récemment par la Conférence des évêques de France. Ce livre constitue une référence incontournable sur la gouvernance du catholicisme français contemporain.

In 1234, four mendicant friars arrived in the Byzantine city of Nicaea to discuss the possibility of a union between the Greek and Roman Churches. The controversy over the specific differences in both doctrine and practice had taken on a new urgency in the thirteenth century. The Fourth Crusade in 1204 placed the Byzantine capital of Constantinople under Latin control, creating an atmosphere of nearly continuous conflict, and yet the two sides agreed to meet in hopes of a peaceful settlement.Presented in translation for the first time, the report of those friars describing the discussions, or disputatio, of 1234 illuminates the full spectrum of motivations and implications surrounding the prospect of church union in the years following the Fourth Crusade. The letters exchanged by Pope Gregory IX and Patriarch Germanos II demonstrate the terms under which both sides entered the negotiations with a notable degree of optimism. Brought together, these sources represent the largest collection of material describing any dialogue between the churches in the thirteenth century. Translation and analysis of these sources call into question the long-held view that attempts to end the schism of the churches were perpetually doomed to fail.

Witchcraft is rarely mentioned in official documents of the contemporary Roman Catholic church, but ideas about the dangers of witchcraft and other forms of occultism underpin the recent revival of interest in exorcism in the church. This Element examines hierarchical and clerical understandings of witchcraft within the contemporary Roman Catholic church. The Element considers the difficulties faced by clergy in parts of the developing world, where belief in witchcraft is so dominant it has the potential to undermine the church's doctrine and authority. The Element also considers the revival of interest in witchcraft and cursing among Catholic demonologists and exorcists in the developed world. The Element explores whether it is possible for a global church to adopt any kind of coherent approach to a phenomenon appraised so differently across different cultures that the church's responses to witchcraft in one context are likely to seem irrelevant in another.

The shrine of St Thomas Becket at Canterbury Cathedral was one of the most popular pilgrim destinations in medieval Europe, as well as the focal point for the liturgy of the cathedral's monastic community. In 1428 the keepers of the shrine composed a customary detailing its day-to-day operation, including the opening hours, decoration, maintenance, and staffing. This unique survival offers a rare glimpse into the realities of organizing a pilgrimage site in a major medieval church, and the Latin text with facing English translation is provided for the first time. A comprehensive introduction and extensive notes set the Customary within the context of the cathedral, its liturgy, and pilgrim practice more widely.

If we understand the liturgy of the Church as a form of tradition, how can a theological concept of tradition then contribute to the development of evaluation criteria for reforms of the liturgy? In other words: how can we make the concept of tradition productive for the evaluation of the process of liturgical renewal? In order to be able to formulate a satisfactory answer to this question, the first half of this study offers a number of theoretical explorations on liturgical reform, on a theological concept of tradition that is expressed in liturgy, on the factors that disrupt or aid liturgical communication, and on criteria for evaluating liturgical reforms. The second part comprises six case studies, in which the theory that has been developed is tested. Throughout this work it becomes clear that liturgy in itself is the process of transmitting the person and message of Jesus, in which the Spirit of God and the human person work together indivisibly. The case studies in the second part of this book, concerning the liturgical reform of Vaticanum II, lead to such questions as: Was the traditional nature of the liturgy and its reform sufficiently taken into account? Should the intended changes not have been introduced over the course of a much longer period of time, for instance multiple generations, in order to give the process of tradition with its aspects of maturation, reception, and correction sufficient opportunity? Was the principle of the identity of the liturgy of a rite throughout time given sufficient consideration? Was there enough attention for the sometimes irrational nature of liturgical communication, which is partly a consequence of its traditional nature?

This edited volume starts from the perspectives of Beijing in how it sees that religion should serve the interests of the state. From China's viewpoint, religion should act as a stabilizing force of society, or else the Christian Churches will lose their reason for existence. This might be incomprehensible to Western Christians, who believe in the freedom of religion and their right to embrace their faith. This collection of articles represents the concerted efforts of Chinese, Italians, and an American who live in China, Europe, and the United States and belong to different disciplines, such as History, Religious Studies, and Language Studies to promote a better understanding of the Catholic Church in the world and in China.
